Carrying out activities described in the work plan
project implementation
What the three stages in project implementation
inception stage,
main implementation and monitoring,
closure and final report
This stage the project context and objective are reviewed implementation plan is revised to fit the current situation in context
The inception stage or period
This stage the planned activities are carried out and manage to achieve the envisioned results, uses regular, timely, and structured reporting
The main implementation phase and monitoring
this stage the final report is done consisting of project summary of achievements and section on lessons learned
closure and final report
What are the principles of project implementation
planning and re-planning
monitoring
reporting
It involves the need to review, refine, and update the initial implementation schedule, log frame and activity plans, and budget.
planning and re-planning
establish sufficient control over project and ensure all activities towards the achievement of its objectives
monitoring
a systematic and continuous collection analysis and use of information for management control and decision-making.
monitoring
providing progress reports by sufficiently providing detailed information on the state of project. details of budget implementation, budgetary provision for next reporting period.
reporting
continuing function that uses systematic collection of data on specified indicators
monitoring
provide management and main stakeholders of ongoing development intervention with indications of objectives and progress in use of allocated funds
monitoring
generate info about what is happening in project
determine actual progress against what was planned and give warning about deviations
monitoring
systematic and objective assessment of ongoing or completed project, program or policy including design, implementation and results
evaluation
what are types of evaluation
midterm evaluation
final or end of project evaluation
ex post evaluation
aims to determine relevance and fulfillment of objectives, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability
evaluation
assess whether development intervention is being implemented as planned whether adjustments are required
midterm evaluation
to document resources used, result and progress towards objectives
final or end of project evaluation
often assessment of impact of project and its sustainability
ex post evaluation
Clarifies program objectives
Links activities and their resources to objectives
Translate objectives into performance
indicators and sets targets
Routinely collects data on these
indicators, compare actual results
with targets
Reports progress to managers and
alerts them to problems
monitoring
Analyzes why intended results
were or were not achieved
Assesses specific causal
contributions of activities to results
Examines implementation process
Explores unintended results
Provides lessons, highlights
significant accomplishment or
program potential, and offers
recommendations for improvement
evaluation
what are criteria for evaluation
relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability, impact
a tool for planning, monitoring, and evaluation
Logical framework approach (LFA)
based on seven categories for planning and evaluation extension programs.
